Anxiety is bad this evening, had to take Ativan. I know what the trigger is, upstairs neighbors are having a little get together and although I know it is happening, and I was invited, every thump or bang causes me to immediately tense up, be so fearful and stressed. I keep telling myself it is ok, they are having fun, you are not in danger ,yet here I am. Previous neighbors ( 2 sets actually) over time, have seriously added to my trauma. I hate this! I want to cry and cry. I feel like I am frightened to death yet I know there is no need to be in fear. I guess that is all part of PTSD, it brings you right back as if the danger is still present.
